?Chapter 545:


    But Alexander threw himself right into harm’s way. The leader paused, shocked by the blood now on his own hand. He cursed angrily, “Are you out of your mind?” Alexander, holding his abdomen and kneeling in pain, still tried to sound heroic.


    “Dani, run!”


    The leader looked at Alexander skeptically.


    “This isn’t a movie.”


    Unable to tolerate more, he knocked Alexander out with a single punch.


    The area finally calmed down.


    “Do you want to feel the knife, or will you get in the car yourself?” the scar-faced man asked Dani.


    Dani offered a slight smile.


    “I’ll get in, but first I need to speak to my driver.”


    The scar-faced man eyed Dani’s serene expression suspiciously.


    Dani leaned towards the driver and instructed, “Take the car to a carwash. Don’t let the blood stain the seats.”


    The man sneered, “You might not even return, and you’re worried about keeping the car clean?”


    Remaining calm, Dani said, “I’m a bit of a neat freak.”


    She pushed the cold de away from her neck.


    “Keep that away from me.”


    g ? ln σ ν?? ?s, where stories thrive


    Herposed demeanor unsettled the scar-faced man. He suspected she was plotting something.


    Observing her frail appearance and doubting her capability to fight, he said, “Stop acting tough and get in.” Dani got into the car without any protest.


    As the vehicle began to move, a bloodstained hand grabbed the door.


    “What are you doing?” Alexander demanded.


    The scar-faced man frowned and was about to push him off when Dani stated calmly, “I’d hurry if I were you. It looks like the traffic police are here.”


    The vehicle had been stationary for too long, drawing attention.


    Alexander reached for Dani, but the scar-faced man took advantage of the moment to pull Alexander into the car.


    “Don’t worry! I’ve got this,” Alexander said as he entered.


    His words made everyone in the carugh.


    In contrast to Alexander, Dani stayed calm.


    They blindfolded her and drove off to an undisclosed location.


    Midway through the journey, she spoke up, her voice firm yet polite.


    “Sorry, but this blindfold is too tight. Could you loosen it a bit?”


    Alexander felt like a coward next to Dani.


    He tried to emte her calm and fell silent.


    The car became quiet.


    After another half hour, it stopped.


    Alexander and Dani were forced out. Sheposed herself and walked where they led her, while Alexander squirmed and kept asking, “Do you know who I am? Do you know who she is?”


    Annoyed, the leader pped Alexander, knocking him to the ground.
